About Me

I'm a young philosophy teacher passionate about literature, human sciences and everything that is going on around the world. I love to travel, discover new cultures and exchange some life experiences. I guess I'm quite a sensible person and I really appreciate meeting new people. I'm also quite a sportsman when I'm in a period of motivation (not always).

I can't host you right now, because I will leave my flat soon, but when I come back to France, I'll be sure to host !

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I had many good experiences with Couchsurfing (in Scotland, Ireland, Germany, Portugal, Italy, etc.), but always with my girlfriend. You can check her profile here : https://www.couchsurfing.com/people/alice.latouche?fbclid=IwAR1rUsqfk5bxo2nP17Vyicdu7MmRL1oOJzck9sNbIac0iUTTi3xE7T5GXUk

We have always been travelling together, so the comments concern both of us ! She will be working when I'll leave so this time, I'll be all by myself.

I'm currently preparing a journey through Europe and towards Russia and Mongolia.
The purpose of my journey is in the main to meet some people, to share each others' culture and Couchsurfing seems to be the perfect way to make this happen.
